The case new order to be accepted then more space to be rented / built. New machines to be purchased. More utilities expenses to be incurred and more workers are needed. Then both fixed and variable costs are affected. Because selling price would be less than the usual then profit from the offer would be less than the usual. Therefor answer d is more likely.

Since the plant is operating at full capacity, an special order (one-time) would mean additional  fixed equipment and thus would mean higher expense, therefore, the answer would be d.the order will likely be rejected.
